Instant deportation for Fijian trio says Inguba

THREE of the eight Fijians who have overstayed their visas will be deported immediately, Police Commissioner Sam Inguba said yesterday.
Mr Inguba who is the acting chairman of the National Security Advisory Council (NSAC), said the three who had been detained in Port Moresby would be flown out of the country.
The three were among the eight controversial Fijians brought into the country by the principal of U-Vistract Noah Musingku for security training of youths in the area.
They were also reported to be after dividends that were promised by Mr Musingku for investments made in U-Vistract by Fijians.
Mr Inguba said in a statement: “The three Fijians who had been detained would be deported without being charged because there was no evidence implicating them under the PNG Migration Act. As for the remaining five, we had been working closely with the Autonomous Government of Bougainville (AGB) to bring them to Port Moresby and deal with them accordingly.”
The failure by the five to leave Bougainville by last Dec 28, when their visa expired, has angered AGB leaders.
Vice President of the Autonomous Bougainville Government, Joe Watawi told The National in Buka that the remaining five Fijians must leave the shores of Bougainville immediately.
Mr Watawi and Police Minister, Izikiel Massatt, said these people were now illegal aliens on Bougainville.
He said they must leave immediately.
But the two AGB ministers said that they would not engage the military or use military tactics to remove them from Bougainville.
They gave no clear indication whether the ABG was communicating with Mr Musingku to have the five Fijians released.
The ministers also announced an end to all illegal activities on Bougainville, including the dismantling of roadblocks in the Central and South Bougainville.
The ministers pointed out that the new Autonomous Bougainville Government would like to promote and achieve peace through peaceful means.
